Hi Dario I was only looking at it from a trunk placement / perspective.... Hadn't drawn in apex and cascading branches as you have done.... Would end up similar on top as what you have done

Beautiful virt Dario, thank you! Definitely food for thought.

I went ahead and chopped this back today to get it started on some backbud. I also played with a proposed planting angle.

cut out the main trunk just below the three or four main roots and strap the top to a rock---grow the bottom section an as a stumpy

Hey all,

This tree looks pretty much the same since last update, just a little leafier. Any comments on styling branch-wise? I'm pretty lost on where to take this guy when it's got the odd angled trunk that it has.
